Lanthanides and Actinides in Molecular Magnetism

The first reference on this rapidly growing topic provides an essential up–to–date guide to current and emerging trends. A group of international experts has been carefully selected by the editors to cover all the central aspects, with a focus on molecular species while also including industrial applications. The resulting unique overview is a must–have for researchers, both in academia and industry, who are entering or already working in the field.
